Electric compressor with isolation constraint system
An electric compressor includes a housing, refrigerant inlet port, a refrigerant outlet port, an inverter section, a motor section, a compression device and a front cover. The housing defines an intake volume and a discharge volume. The refrigerant inlet port is coupled to the housing and is configured to introduce the refrigerant to the intake volume. The compression device is a scroll-type compression device having an orbiting scroll and configured to compress the refrigerant. The refrigerant outlet port is coupled to the housing and is configured to allow compressed refrigerant to exit the scroll-type electric compressor from the discharge volume. The electric compressor further including an isolation and constraint system to isolate the housing from the orbiting scroll.
OIL SEAL APPARATUS AND BLOWER COMPRISING THE SAME
An oil seal apparatus and a blower including the same are disclosed. The oil seal apparatus and the blower can assemble a body pipe quickly regardless of assembling direction of the body pipe when assembling the body pipe by forming a plurality of oil return holes, i.e., forming more than four or five oil return holes at upper portion, lower portion, left portion, and right portion of an outboard surface of the body pipe. The oil seal apparatus may be mounted in a shaft through-hole formed at an oil box of a blower. The oil seal apparatus may include: a body pipe mounted on a rotation shaft penetrating through the shaft through-hole and provided with a step portion formed at an exterior circumference of the body pipe; at least one collecting groove for collecting oil which is formed at an interior circumference of the body pipe; and more than four oil return holes evenly spaced from each other, formed at the body pipe slantedly from an inboard side to an outboard side, and communicating with the collecting groove.
Fluid Ring Compressor
A fluid ring compressor comprises a first single-acting compression stage having a first impeller eccentrically mounted in a housing and a second single-acting compression stage having a second impeller eccentrically mounted in a housing. The first compression stage and the second compression stage are separated from one another by a sealing gap. The sealing gap is arranged between a suction section of the first compression stage and a suction section of the second compression stage.
Anti-wear coatings for scroll compressor wear surfaces
Anti-wear surface coatings and methods for making them are provided. Such anti-wear surface coatings are particularly suitable for use in a compressor, such as a scroll compressor. A precursor powder material can be applied via spraying to a wear surface of a metal component of the scroll compressor. The precursor powder material comprises a powderized thermoplastic polymer (e.g., PEEK), a first lubricant particle (e.g., molybdenum disulfide (MoS.sub.2)) and a second lubricant particle (e.g., polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)). Then the applied precursor powder material is heated to form a substantially uniform coating covering the underlying metal component. The substantially uniform coating may have a thickness of less than or equal to about 0.005 inches (about 127 m).
MEDIUM-FREQUENCY HERMETICALLY SEALED REFRIGERANT COMPRESSOR CAPABLE OF UNLOADING DURING START
A medium-frequency hermetically sealed refrigerant compressor capable of unloading during start, comprising: an electric connector (2), a front end socket (1), a rear end socket (6), a barrel (7), a medium-frequency motor (3) disposed in the barrel (7), a movable disc (4), a motion transmission sleeve (8), a main shaft (9), a clutch coil (10) and a clutch friction plate (11); the front and back ends of the barrel (7) are respectively connected to the front end socket (1) and the rear end socket (6) the barrel (7) has a stator disc (5) fixed therein cooperating with the movable disc (4); the movable disc (4) and the stator disc (5) are sleeved on one side of the main shaft (9), and the clutch friction plate (11) and the clutch coil (10) are sleeved on another side of the main shaft (9); the movable disc (4) and the clutch friction plate (11) are fixed on a side surface of the main shaft (9); the output shaft of the medium-frequency motor (3) is connected to the clutch coil (10) via the motion transmission sleeve (8); the electric connector (2) is fixed on the barrel (7); and the electric connector (2) is connected to the clutch coil (10). The compressor achieves a low current start, and reduces the impact against the on-board power supply.
PUMP WITH SHAPED FACE SEAL
A sealing arrangement is disclosed for use in a pump. The sealing arrangement can include a first pump component having a first face surface. The first face surface can have a sealing protrusion thereon. A second pump component can have a second face surface positioned in confronting relation to the first face surface. The second pump component can define a sealing cavity for holding a fluid under pressure. The sealing protrusion is positioned to engage the second face surface when the first face surface is pressed against the second face surface so that the sealing protrusion seals against the second face surface to prevent movement of the fluid from the sealing cavity past the sealing protrusion. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
Scroll compressor with adjusting mechanism for reducing swing of eccentric bush
A scroll compressor including a shaft configured to be rotated by a drive source; an eccentric bush having a recess portion into which the shaft is inserted, an eccentric portion eccentric to the shaft, and a balance weight for balancing a rotation; an orbiting scroll configured to be orbited by the eccentric portion; and a fixed scroll configured to be engaged with the orbiting scroll, and a rotational clearance is formed between an outer peripheral surface of the shaft and an inner peripheral surface of the recess portion, and the eccentric bush is formed to be capable of performing a swing motion relative to the shaft in a range of the rotational clearance based on a drive pin configured to connect the shaft and the eccentric bush, and an adjusting mechanism configured to reduce the swing motion of the eccentric bush is disposed between the shaft and the eccentric bush.
BEARING ARRANGEMENT FOR PUMPS
In accordance with at least one aspect of this disclosure, a pump comprises a pump rotor having a plurality of vanes therein configured to pump a fluid from a pump inlet to a pump outlet through rotation of the rotor about a rotational axis, an input shaft operatively connected to drive rotation of the rotor, and a bearing operatively connected to the input shaft configured to facilitate rotation of the input shaft. A shaft extender is operatively connected radially between the input shaft and the bearing. The input shaft includes a conical portion and the shaft extender includes a conical portion complementary to the conical portion of the input shaft. The shaft extender interfaces with at least the conical portion of the input shaft, when on the input shaft.
